I am really, really hoping to get my spending back below the $1500 per year mark this year.

I haven't been able to keep my spending that low since I started the Kubrick thing in late 2004 (damn 'brick addiction), but that won't stop me from trying to limit things (and failing miseably) in 2008.

I sort of got off base with my updates/totals towards the end of '07, but I'm in again this year. I really hope to be cutting back significantly (I say that every year), so hopefully the totals will be more tolerable. If Hasbro would just easy up on the figure releases per year a bit, that would help . I think money is going to be tighter this year for us, so things are going to have to be scaled back for me - or I'll be selling stuff to fund new purchases.

I might opt back in again just for fun. I'm mostly caught up on everything I want to be so that side is good. The bad is that most of what I want isn't inexpensive (12-backs; MR helmets, Gentle Giant stuff).

So far, so good: $0 and while I've been on ebay while drinking, so far the restraint has been admirable.

I was able to buy the hardcover of the Star Wars Sacrifice book. it was 30% off and since my sis is a member of the book store i got an additional 10% of that to lower the book to $21. Now I don't have to wait for the paperback to come out

im still waiting for goldenagetoys to get wave 9 in though as me and my buddy pre-ordered a case to split.

Total so far: $21.42

School has been on strike all month. so much for the summer job I was hoping to get D:

bought two McFarlene Hockey figures at $4.95 a piece at WM. Bobby Hull and Alew Tanguay. with tax it came out to $11.16

goldenagetoys also charged my buddies credit card so we should be recieving wave 9 sometime this week. so if we were to add that into my total now it would be.... $85.59man this is tough seeing how much i am spending, and I am still trying to find a new good hockey stick. I'm thinking of getting another Bauer Vaper but $99.99 up here is a little much.
